You are full of it Nappy, as you are about most everything

Here is a video of Curtis from7 years ago. He is a damn good blues man - he can 
play guitar and mouth harp at the same time better than you can walk and chew 
gum at the same time. His music and performances do more for the world than 
waiting on some non-existent "world teacher" to appear in England to save 
everyone.

Curtis got a lot of enthusiasm, one must give him credit for that.  Enthusiasm 
is the hallmark of an amateur, restraint that of an artist. 
By claiming to be an artist he makes a fool of himself, much like the clown on 
the video.

Really nice Curtis!  I was smiling from start to finish.  And real nice 
interaction with the audience.

Yes, the 5-year-olds were smiling.

IMO, I think you artist performance has continued to improve.

I still object to you demand to be taken seriously music-wise. 

M: I never demand anyone to take me seriously music-wise. I am satisfied and my 
paying customers are satisfied, that is good enough for me.



N: But let not me be the judge, anyone interested can make their own opinion:

M: Fair enough. Here is something more recent, 2008, but I also dig that old 
video.

I am a fan of all the guys you posted. Music is not a zero sum game, there is 
room for lots of artists. I am able to play a bit more enthusiastically these 
days than the 4 dead guys you listed however.

Our disagreement boils down to the word "art".

M: We are not disagreeing, you just don't understand what it means. It is a 
field of human activity, it is not a statement of value. I get hired as a 
teaching artist in schools to bring in the art of music. Some others bring in 
dance. If you don't like a dancer has your opinion removed them from the field 
of the humanities and now they are practicing science?
When someone pays me to perform music they are paying me for my art form, 
music. You believe your personal taste is what defines what is and is not art.

You are clueless even for a foreign language speaker.
